Claim Jumpers is About the Dumbest Thing Fox Has Come Up With

Fox broadcasters are trying to be clever and top 'BuschWhackers' -- which is what a LOT of us old time writers have called the Cup drivers who cherry pick in the Busch (or Nationwide now) Series taking points, wins and money away from the drivers trying to get experience and their big break in racing.

Honestly. Claim Jumpers? That sounds pretty pathetic.

We've offered other alternatives since BUSCH is no longer acceptable in the broadcast booth...

Saturday Cupsters, Cherry Pickers, Low Down Mangy Varmints....Visit FOXSPORTS/NASCAR and send your ideas in to them via their contact form.

There has to be something better than claim jumpers.....

FoxSports Bristol Coverage Had an Eerie Sound

For whatever reason, Fox must have insisted Darrell Waltrip be in the booth for Sunday's race at Bristol, inspite of an incredibly hoarse and raspy voice. Guess Fox doesn't give 'sick leave' to the announcing crew....it reached a point where I burst out laughing whenever Waltrip spoke, because his voice sounded like a really, really bad imitation of either the Godfather or a horror show demon voice. Whatever it was, I hope it's cleared in up in 2 weeks, because I don't think we can take much more of the evil Darrell twin doing the commentary...
